## What is Statics (Civil Engineering)?

Statics is a "must have" mobile software for every engineer (in particular civil or building), architect, Statics and Building science student!

In fact it's a fast standard beam solver (currently arches, supported, cantilever, inclined, fixed - fixed and fixed - supported beams loaded with forces, moments and distributed loads) that calculates moments, shears, axial forces, rotations and lowerings by simply inserting input parameters (many of them are also suggested by the program itself, like Young's modulus or material's weight). It's also possible calculate the area moment of inertia for rectangular sections.
You don't have to bother about the measure unit system, because you can choose between metric and imperial one.

Design &/or check steel beams using the most common steel sections for every kind of statics and by controlling the maximum lowering allowed (L/250, L/400, L/500). 

The program also has a list of all standard equations used to solve the beams, so you can easily know what is the general equation for every case.

***************************************************

Statics has been developed by Mattia Campolese, former Civil Engineer from Lanciano, Italy, with a strong passion in software development.

### 1/5 — No good

*2021-03-23*

Waste of money. Don’t buy.

### 5/5 — A.L

*2020-11-15*

This is very usefull. I like it

### 5/5 — Nice program, helpful and easy to use

*2019-08-26*

Thank you!

### 1/5 — Frustrating

*2017-05-10*

Just trying to switch units is impossible.

**Developer response:** Switching units is now possible through the Settings button in the top right of the view, thanks.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2016-12-09*

I regret many purchase that I've made, but I've never regretted one like this. This app is totally a lie and it's not worth a cent.

### 1/5 — Should make a limited free version

*2016-02-26*

Useless app I bought for my statics class. They should offer a limited free version to try before buy. Big waste of money for me.

### 1/5 — Dumb

*2015-03-24*

What is the point of buying this app??! You cannot make your own body diagrams, you can only change the values of the diagrams already set. Want my money back.

### 3/5 — Not bad

*2014-10-24*

It's not a bad app. It would be great that the app could convert units.

### 2/5 — Static App

*2011-10-23*

Please I want to know how it can solve continues beams.
Urgent 
And thank you.

### 3/5 — Must have civil/structural app 

*2011-03-10*

Firstly I would like to say that this app has huge potential

It is a very useful engineering app, especially for 1st year undergraduates, and offers an acceptable range of structures that can be analysed and provides reaction forces, rotations, bending moment and shear force diagrams. 

However it only offers solutions for mainly determinate structures (two supports) and doesn't offer solutions for trusses ! 

This app can be improved by introducing beams with 3 supports, trusses and frames. It would be amazing if you could edit basic truss or frame structures and analyse them. 

Well worth £1.19

## Frequently asked questions about Statics (Civil Engineering)
